One of our patients has voulunteered to help me set up the network. I was amazed in my little experiment at home just how difficult it was to network a few computers. Now if you know how to do it, I predict that it will be pretty effortless, but when I tried to network our two home computers together, I failed. When i tried to set up a printer at home that could be connected to wirelessly from the two laptops to the printer, I failed.
It appears that even with a fair amount of computer knowledge, it still requires a fair amount more of technical networking knowledge to get the whole thing to work. Not for the timid! On the other hand I also bought a very detailed book on Networking in the Dummies series, and it was still very hard to understand.

So that leaves us where we are. This upgrade to the new machines and software should be done within a few weeks, and it will take our little San Diego chiropractic office, up to the next level!
